As you know, if you retired from the military, you have access to the Exchanges and to the online exchanges. The law changes on November 11, 2017, Veterans Day this year allowing ANY honorable separated veteran the right to purchase from the exchange.

You need to pre-register.

Go to shopmyexhcnage.com. On the right near the top is a box.... Veterans Online Shopping Benefit.... Take the first step.. Click on it and it takes you to vetverify.org. That is where you register. Then on November 11, 2017, you will have access to create an account at shopmyexchange.com.

I got lucky, someone was looking out for me somewhere. I registered two weeks ago and the other day, I received an email to create my exchange account and start shopping now as a Beta test for the exchange. I have been perusing the goodies and one thing I looked up for my daughter was some Whey. On Amazon, it was $58 and in the exchange it was $29. Not everything is as deeply discounted.

Also, all purchases are tax free. Anything over $49 is shipped free, under $49 is a flat $4.95. And... they match prices with walmart, target, amazon. What could be better.

Hope this will help some of you that are vets or have a vet in the family. It sure put a smile on my face.
